Just acquired a nice '03 Springfield, 944897 with 8/44 SA barrel in a nice
C Stock. It has a naked P and a B struck in front of the floorplate and nothing in the cutout area. It also has a boxed AAHO rebuild stamp and a smooth buttplate. My guess is that the stock was added prewar and then rebarreled during the war.
Three questions. Is the stock prewar? What is the B marking in front of the floorplate? Last, I know that squeezing the barrel against the stock will show some movement, but my barrel seems to move more than any other of my
'03s. Will this affect accuracy?
Thanks
